Marshall).—Leaflets seven to eleven, oblong- lanceolate, serrate, smooth and thin; fruit globular, with distinct ridges at the seams (Fig. 50); the husk very thin, and at ma- turity splitting about halfway to the [ base, the four divisions becoming reflexed in maturing, but not separating and falling apart as in the thicker-husk spe- cies.

Usually a medium-sized, graceful tree, with smooth bark, slender twigs, and small, oblong buds covered with a dense yel- low pubescence in winter. It grows in moist soils, along streams and borders of swamps, and near springs on hillsides, from Maine to Florida, and westward to Min- nesota, Nebraska and Kansas.
